Hi my lovely ladies! Just wanted to give a friendly reminder since tomorrow will be Easter and I'm not sure how many of us will be on the board what with all the family activies/church etc. Tomorrow is the start of National Infertility Awareness Week!! If you would like to facebook or tweet something but can't think of what to say I have a "status a day" schedule on my blog (see link in siggy). Or if you don't want to be too "Out" then you can also go to the blog "Hannah Wept. Sarah Cried" and take the myth-busters challenge that asks you to blog about one of the many myths of infertility! I appreciate any & all you girls that help me come up with and/or inspired my "campaign". This is a bit of a P & R since I have to go get ready for work but I'll check in a little bit before I leave and again tonight if there are any questions.

Re: Reminder! Awareness Week starts tomorrow!
Thanks for the reminder Kati.
I sort of outed myself last week. On the Hanna Wept, Sarah Cried site-there is an option to add a little IF icon to your profile pic- and it also adds a post to your feed.
So- there is another way to support NAIW.
The website is Hannah Wept, Sarah Laughed; and thanks for pointing this out to everyone! I'm still deciding what I want to do....

Could I have a link to your blog? I'm unsure what to do...I posted something on my facebook about my outrage with peta, and no one posted anything! One girl at worked asked me if mabye "I was a little over sensitive to the subject beacuse we were having trouble." Yah no ***.. thats why I posted it. I would love to read your blog and see your status updates. Thanks again
p.s If I was really brave I would post the video from the hannah wept, sara laughed blog. The video was amazing and brought me to tears.

I love your updates!
I'm still trying to decide if I want to out myself...But I'm leaning toward yes. So I may borrow them, if that's ok with you.
Thank you for doing this!!
Nevermind I found your blog!! I;m kinda slow today

I'm so sorry that your coworker said this to you. I can't believe it! I too love the video on her blog, now I just need to decide if I want to out myself....

TTC since 2010
lots of IUIs and 1 IVF all BFNs
FET currently on hold
Your status updates are perfect. I am totally stealing them! Thanks for linking them. I was nervous to "out" myself via Facebook. All of my coworkers and most family members have known for a bit but after added too many loosely aquainted "friends" on Facebook I feel way more vulnerable. I especially like that you included links for more info. I think after years of reading everyone's TMI and complaining statuses, I can give everyone a week's worth of PSA's for IF.
